The San Juan mountains are probably my favorite range in Colorado. Over Labor Day weekend in 2010, Andrea and I made a four day trip down to that area, climbing six 14,000 foot peaks. We've been itching to head back to Colorado ever since, but we've been busy exploring other areas (Tetons, Sierras, etc). Finally, when deciding what kind of trip would be a great cap to Summer 2013, we decided it was time to head back to Colorado. That ended up being a great decision. Most of the trip was spent in the areas around the towns of Ouray and Silverton, two of the best places you could ever visit!
I drove down to Colorado first, five days ahead of Andrea and the rest of the crew. Here are some of the places I visited on my own...
Andrea arrived on the Friday before Labor Day weekend with our friends Amiee, Allie, and James. We stayed at the Aladdin's Lamp hut, situated at 10,500 feet on Molas Pass. Four more amazing days of hiking and running ensued...
